If you haven’t noticed, we live in a high tech world. Now, I am not going to start to say that I am a techy person; 
short of 35 years teaching high school and all that goes with that … if given a choice, I am usually low-tech. However, I’m not stupid and will pick up google-earth along with several other modes of technology that just weren’t here some 45 years ago when I started down this fly fishing world of mine. You are probably, like me or maybe a lot worse … who knows. Anyway, I have listed several fly fishing apps for you to peruse. I make nothing … wish I did. This started when I received a nice email this past couple of weeks from Zachary Pope of TroutRoutes. Zach, like several others each year, found me on YouTube and wanted me to take a look at his app; I did, and his is listed first. Give these Apps for the Fly Fisherman a look and see if they interest you and just possibly they will make your next fly fishing outing a bit easier. Once again, this is just some good info for you to consider. I am not, specifically, endorsing any of these apps.
Fish Rules: https://fishrulesapp.com/
The next app (IOS) I have for you is called Fish Rules. I am not a rule breaker and I like to know what I am fishing for and what are the standards, minimums, etc… This app is a shortcut as it deals with the rules on the stream that you are on at that given time. The app also allows you to quickly log the fish you have caught … how does it work, off of the GPS coordinates that your phone is giving at that time. Hard to beat or be any simpler … and probably cheaper than a fine or ticket? Best of all it is free!
Isolunar Hunt & Fish Times: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/isolunar-hunt-fish-times/id365780014
ISolunar is next up on our app list (Android & IOS). I have actually used this at times and if you have been around an older person then you know that these solunar tables have been in existence for many decades. Some see this as hocus-pocus while others rely on this heavily. Once again it is based off of your phones location and tells you when the best to worst times to fish, etc. … will happen. The cost for the app is $4.99. I might add that if you are a musky-fly-guy then these times really do have much to do with feeding patterns and success.
Fishing Knots & Rigs: Fishing Knots & Rigs
Fishing Knots & Rigs is a personal pocket helper tool, that explains how to bind the most important fishing knots. It helps you attaching your flies, hooks, sviwels and other baits. No matter what kind of fishing you are doing, Fishing Knots & Rigs contains tutorials of the most important knots.

DR. SLICK To the Rescue
Just last week I was once again out on one of my local rivers when I hooked a small pike; if you have ever dealt with pike or any toothy creature then you know and can understand how important it is to have a utensil to safely remove the hook and to not get ‘hooked’ […]
Low Water, Upstream Wind And A 20 Inch Smallmouth Bass
Greetings and welcome back to another fly fishing adventure. Today’s video will give some insight into how to handle low, clear water … in addition to an upstream wind that made navigating my float boat pretty tough. It took me about a half hour to find a pattern that worked and as you will see […]
Streamers In June for Big Bronzebacks
Greetings and welcome to another video here on Fly Fishing With Jeff. In today’s video, I travel down 4-5 miles of the St Croix river in search of big bronzebacks …. smallies! While I catch a few on a popper, the real magic comes when I tie on one of my own reversed tied bucktail […]
Four Species of Big Fish On The Fly
Let me start off by telling you that within this video is the best 30 minute section of fly fishing that I have ever experienced in my 45 plus year career. On that note I will apologize for the video going so long but it was difficult and almost impossible for me to cut too […]
